2015-2017 methods:

identified fish photos

- download fish photos from drive to laptop
- match photos with data sheet using time stamp and description of tail color
- Type in photo filename under column “file_name”
- use images to open identified photos
- in imagej, use caliper or paper lines (.45cm space between each line) to set scale
- using scale, measure fish from tip of nose to longest point on tail
- record measured length under column "imagej size"
- measure same fish from tip of nose to the crease or fold in tail
- record measured length under column "imagej forklength"
- repeat with each photo

2018 methods:

- download fish photos from drive to laptop
- match photos with data sheet using time stamp and description of tail color
- Type in photo filename under column “file_name”
- use images to open identified photos
- in imagej, use caliper or paper lines (.35cm space between each line) to set scale
- Using straight line tool, measured nose to point and nose to fork length
- Used freehand tool to draw around whole tail and measure function to calculate area
- If needed, measured small orange regions
- record measured length under column "imagej size"
- measure same fish from tip of nose to the crease or fold in tail
- record measured length under column "imagej forklength"
- repeat with each photo
